Have A Great Shave, Have A Great Day!
Geo
Been using a 37C for a couple of years now. Best razor in my small collection.
That little slant is nice!
Thank you for the video, you have a very calm and peaceful nature to your videos :) The Merkur 34C has become my new and lifetime daily razor, I love this razor! The more I look at the detail and design of it, as well as the more I shave with it, the more I begin to appreciate it. It truly is the workhorse of the industry haha. Thanks Geo :)
Wonderful! Thank you for the kind words and I'm glad you're enjoying the 34C!
Classic clear the run way, trade mark special of geofatboy. 💈
Been using that one for about 10 years, so yes, I guess it is trademarked! *** Clear The Runways™ ***
Gotta show the 34 G some love! It's one of the best looking razors out there.
You're right ice, they're right next to each other on the shelf and I left it out this time. How dare I!
But the "G" is the same as the 34C, just colored gold! I'm a sucker for different colored razors.
Great Geofatboy, I love Merkur German, simple and practical, perfect, Thanks for your videos, I have been following you for many years, you are the best, consistency and passion, I greet you from my island Sardinia, Italy
Thanks very much for your past and continued support James. Greatly appreciated and all the best from the USA🇺🇸
This guy definitely knows a guy.
I know a few... And - We don't want nobody nobody sent!
Wow! That BBS shave was sooo smooth I could actually hear it!
Nice! 👶
Merkur 37C is my main razor. Very efficient and smooth compared to the 34C. Plus it provides a more closer shave than its straight-bar twin
Thank you for sharing your experience with the 37C.
I just recently got myself a 37C and I gotta say, it’s a very effective smooth razor man! Nothin’ but smooth sailing over here! 👈🏻
Like skimming on the surface in your 40' Donzi 🛥
geofatboy 😂
Go for the Merkur Futur for an even more aggressive shave. The slant is efficient yet surprisingly mild. I don't get how people say it's aggressive. I would even recommend it to beginners.
The Futur is great, though some have difficulty shaving directly under the nose with it because of the oversized head and need to clean up that area with a razor that has a smaller head. The Progress is a great choice that uses more of a standard size head so it eliminates that issue: bit.ly/MerkurFuturSN bit.ly/ProgressRazorsSN
Can't go wrong with merkur razors :-) 39c is my current favorite
NICE!
Wow perfect timing on this video I was just going over some safety razors to purchase and was curious on what I should start with thank you very much for posting this!
The 34C is the only razor I'll ever need. Works perfectly for me whether I shave daily or ever 3 days. I always get a BBS shave with no irritation whatsoever. It's an awesome razor. I have a few razors but the 34C outperforms the others.
Thanks Geo for the informative video.
Like I said-The Workhorse of the Shaving Industry!
Could you also have more reviews of different shave creams/soaps? You usually use Proraso, or Tailor of Old Bond Street mostly, though you mix it up sometimes. Wish you could have more reviews on the products as well as the razors.
During my research I found several interesting shaving creams and soaps, that I have put on my list to try.
RazoRocks, is back as I heard because of the Internets large wet shaving entusiasts.
Loccitane Cade
Saponificio
Suavecito
Geo F Trumper
Castle Forbes
Truefitt Hill
Asylum
Kaizen
I've covered several on that list already: RR, Suavecito, Geo F Trumper, and Castle Forbes. Haven't tried the others yet, but I'll definitely look into expanding into those areas. Thanks for the suggestions.
@@xatzis243 Neither are aggressive. This is coming from someone who can't shave against the grain on the face.
From experience, the 6S provides the best shave but it really breaks your wallet. You can't really expose the blade - per se - in the Futur, but it does look cool.
I personally believe it's overhyped, to say the least.
39C is a beast. Goes through a four day beard like a hot knife through warm butter.
German engineering at its best!
I like to watch and very nice work on other people learn how to get a nice shave.
Thank you!
Geo💈💈 Nice presentation and explanation of the Merkur razors. I had a 38C but I'm so heavy handed I just couldn't get a good shave with it, my son loves it👍 Now I wish I had it back🙄 Gotta get one of those bowls in green, cool. Great video bro. Enjoy!
That's great Terry, your son will think of you every time he picks it up to shave! And-now you know what to put on your birthday and holiday list. bit.ly/Merkur38CSN
I like Mercur. I bought 34c, Progress, 11c, 37c. I bought them because I wanted completely small fat boys from Solingen. I prefer, but 34c is the best and I have no problem getting on a smooth face. I wanted 11c because it is no longer produced. Progress because I wanted one adjustable razor. 37c because it is so special, different and so beautiful. I will not buy more machines. I use exclusively Speick or Lavera cosmetics. I buy exclusively from Europe, due to ecology and the support of local industry. Geo, have a nice day and thank you for your videos. Honza
Hi Geo- Great shave and razor comparison video; thank you! Nice description of the different razors and always a great shave! I hope you have a great rest of the Labor Day weekend. Take good care and be safe and be well. Best regards, as always, Geo!
Thanks Mike, take care!
Very nice comparison Geo
Thanks Samuel!
LOVE my 39c!
SLEDGE HAMMER!!!
@@geofatboy You're the reason I bought it. My three main razors are the 39C, an old Ever-Ready/Gem single-edge razor, which I LOVE, and a custom Jerry Stark straight razor. Your videos and knowledge have been invaluable to me. Thanks, Geo!
Thanks geo. My razor is merkur 39c
Wise choice!
What a nice shave !
thanks a lot Geo sir !
Thanks Sam!
Hello Geo. Greetings from across the pond. Wales to be exact. Always a great shave. And entertaining and informative. You use various types of razors. How is it that you never get cuts or Nick's? Do you have a face that's chiseled from granite? Like a Greek God. Look after yourself and stay safe. 😁
Good one Andrew! All the best from the USA 🇺🇸I think my mother used to tell me that when I was younger. It was always good for a laugh. Believe it or not, I still have the occasional oops moment!
I can always feel the 30 degree angle with the safety razor but the straight razor is still somewhat of a mystery. Many cuts to date but not giving up.
Merkur 37c is an ultimate and my daily go to razor I love it but I don't love 39c because I don't have it and would be buying soon 🙏👍👍
Here you go Rajan: bit.ly/SledgeHammer39CRazorSN
Here I don't click on "Show more". Here I click "Pokaż więcej" and it's.... it's.... beautiful I guess? Whatever :) I love that small handle and I gotta try that razor one day!
There was an ad before the video started for ball (testicle) deodorant. Anyways this a a great video. Same situation. I don’t do well fragrance and it burns my skin (lips) when I have a eczema flare up. I’ll check out the store. Not sure if I want the large or shorter handle as I have the 34c already.
Some of the ads are totally unrelated to shaving. I get plus size ladies donning some lycra clothing to make them look slimmer. Not sure why that one pops up... Maybe the algorithm hears Geofatboy and signals it.
The Time travel caught me off guard i laughed muy ass off
Gotta keep you on your toes!
And sure did man keep up the good work. love you videos!
Nice shave Geo, The whole Proraso white line is excellent, also please give us a tutorial on how to build a time warp room😂
Love it❤️ See above...
You are the best Geo!
Wellcome, Great video thanks
Thanks Nawaf!
I have the merkur 39c but I regret not having bought the merkur 37c because the 39c is very bulky, it has a good balance but it handles badly, in fact I think he will buy the 37c because I think he will find me much better for practicality and maneuverability, I will have a faster shave and it will flow smoothly
Here you go James: bit.ly/Merkur37CSlantBarSN
@@geofatboy Thanks very much
I know you’re well versed in what you do, but may I give just a touch of advice? You don’t need to scrub that brush so hard in the bowl. A light touch will build a much thicker, creamier lather. Take that as you will. I enjoy your videos.
Thanks for sharing! Tips are always welcome.
@@geofatboy I sincerely apologize. It's not my place to tell anyone how to do their thing. I do it my way, you do it yours. Love the videos, man. Keep up the good work. Your channel is one of my favorites.
I failed to understand the purpose of the lather bowl, can we directly put the cream on the brush and rub it on face vigorously, so that good foam sticks to beard without any time wastage.
I envy you and anyone with such a thicc facial skin. As for me, the true purpose of lathering bowl became as clear as daylight after I tried face lathering once, against all of my father teachings. Apparently we have sensitive skins runnings in the family.
I also bowl lather 98% of the time. Sensitive skin. Plus I always get a perfect lather every time. May take an extra 2 minutes for me.
nice bowl
Thanks! shavenation.com/products/shave-nation-chicago-artisan-lather-bowl?_pos=2&_sid=f6a043c7f&_ss=r&variant=31151979429982
Great reviews! But are safety razors also suitable for shaving hair?I'm undecided whether to continue with multiblade...thx
Aren't beards hair? If so, then yes. bit.ly/AllSafetyRazorsSN
So the 34c and the 38c are the same apart from the 38c being slightly longer right?
Great vid! Which one would you recommend for shaving your head? I’m tired of cartridge razors.
Hi Geo, Can you do a comparison of the different Parker razors? I bought a 91r a few weeks ago and I find it quite agrassive and I would love to see the difference between their razors. Cheers
You should try Electric Sheep aftershave splash. It will really give you a sting! ⚡😱
Can't find 'timewarp room' buying link in the description, pls help.
I think it's only available in the Shave Nation bathroom, Oh-Elon Musk has one as well😂
I’m looking to use a safety razor for the first time (I’m 59), and am trying the Merkur. Any reason why a first-timer can’t start with the sledgehammer, if I’m careful and follow your instructions?
I’ll be looking for products at your site. Thanks!
Hey Geo, I once saw a video where a person shaved with a safety razor, but instead of cutting and lifting, they more of less rubbed it back and forth. I tried it and it is more tricky, but makes the razor stay clean and not full of hair.
Who was this person?
Geo are you Italian ??
Hi. Can you compare the 37C with the Parker Semi-Slant model? Which is more aggressive?
Have you tried DE razor blades from Gillette? What do you think of those?
What’s your opinion of the 33c vs the 34 and 37?
11:29 thats why he does this
Which should i buy 37c or r41?
Can you do a Blindfolded Straight Razor shave?
Very risky!
@@nonnegotiable2777 It is and because he is well known in the shaving community, for safety concerns, he would never post a video of him doing that, if he even did ever attempt. He has to promote a business that has to highly consider safety. You wont find Smith & Wesson blind target practice ads.
Probably not gonna happen... Not a good idea, for many reasons. But, thanks for the suggestion.
are the Bumpy bowls in stock??
YES: bit.ly/ShaveNationBumpyBowl
@@geofatboy thank you
ILOVE 34hd,
i read reviews that going against the grain, 37c is a little more tugging than 34c, was that so?
Did it look that way in the video?
Can you put the head of a 37c on a 38c?
No 😂
How offend should you change the blade?
4-6 YMMV
I do great with Parker open comb razors. But as soon as the 34c touches my face I'm bleeding
Yikes!
39c or nothing
39c all the way
My way or the highway baby!
I would avoid all of them. 34c and 37c are too short. 38c and 39c are too heavy. I am more fund of the Muhle r41 or r89. It doesn't mean that those Merkur razors aren't good quality or can't work fine, quite the contrary. I just found them out of the equilibrium zone for the minimalist shavers out there like me.
I don't find my Merkur 39c too heavy, just saying..
I Lovs my 39c. I have very large hands and the weight makes it a near effortless shaver. Everybody is a little different, and what works for one person may not work for another.
I’m curious what you mean by being a
‘minimalist’ shaver. Anyway, I agree I prefer the Muhle R41 and R89 much more than any of these Merkur ones.
@@sajjadhusain4146 If you bump into forums you will see what is commonly called RAD ( Razor Aquisition Disorder), also called in psycology as Compulsive buying disorder. You start with what you need and end up buying so much more!
Today's minimalism is a movement against this over consumption that is forced upon us by the capitalist system. It is also a way to preserve the environment and Earth ressources.
You mean YMMV... Different strokes for different folks! Great tune! ruclips.net/video/3JvkaUvB-ec/видео.html
the Merkur 34c sucks. the knife is not in the middle after 4 times return I was done with it
Thanks geo. My razor is merkur 39c
Sweet!
